Bath re-enamelling in Seawick, done in place
If your bath is sound but looks tired, re-enamelling is typically the most cost-effective option. It avoids removal, plumbing and re-tiling. We regularly repair Victorian roll-tops, pressed steel baths and cast iron baths, and people most frequently call us about a peeling or bubbling previous coating and several chips and rust patches.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Seawick?
Once enamel loses its gloss, it stains more easily, and scrubbing it wears it down further. That is the point where re-enamelling makes sense.
The things customers typically mention when they call include:
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- Wear marks under the taps
- Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
What to look for in a quote
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- How changes to the job are handled
- What aftercare is recommended
Should you replace it?
Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: if the bath is cracked through, if you want a different size or shape, or if you are refitting the whole room anyway. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Honest limits
A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Cast iron baths
- Acrylic baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Pressed steel baths
- Victorian roll-tops
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
What happens on the day
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. It normally takes most of the day, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Clear the area around the damage
- Have a window or extractor fan available
Ask for a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll say immediately if a repair is the right fix.
Related advice
Looking after it afterwards
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
Treat the new finish gently at first: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
For landlords and businesses
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
